The Student Global Leadership was a bespoke programme developed by the OAED at the request of Malaysian Higher Education Ministry for the presidents of student unions at Malaysia state universities. The programme was held at St. Hugh`s College of Oxford and attended by 18 participants from 12 universities.

The programme aim was to further develop the students’ leadership skills and to give them exposure to a range of expert experiences. These offered them a toolbox of skills to take home with them that would help to contribute to their university, the workplace and to society as a whole.

The programme was delivered by a group of OAED consultants who covered leadership topics and shared their insights with the students. There were ample opportunity for the students to meet and discuss their shared interests with the President of Oxford University Student Union. The students visited some of Oxford University’s important places of interest including the Bodleian Library and the Oxford Union Society where many famous world leaders have visited and delivered talks.

The delegation was accompanied by the Rector and Vice Rector for Educational Affairs in International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) as well as a member from the rector’s office and a media correspondent.
